8/2

I might have mentioned this snack earlier, but in Italia, a popular one is something called a souppli (spl is off). It's a ball of rice, cheese, and tomato sauce that is fried and eaten like a zeppoli. They also have a potato version called croquette. A place down the road from school has wonderful soupplis and croquettes and a souppli, along with a bottle of water served as my breakfast this morning. As good as it was, I think I earned the shop keepers eternal ire by paying for my 1.80 souppli and water with a 50 euro bill. Don't blame me, blame the atm machines for not giving out 20 Euro bills more frequently.
